Well it’s Memorial Day Weekend and expect thousands of out of town visitors and a whole weekend of packed clubs and cruising… play safe, be safe and look out for one another and have a great weekend!

A few months ago I wrote about the increasing use of the Internet when it came to female/male prostitution… that while the police department was focusing on the increase in female “call girls” because of complaints and rip-offs of some customers, the police department had given notice that they would also be looking into the increasing male sites. I of course made no judgment of those who are in this business… I do feel that they should be a low priority for our police department resources and time (especially with the increase in serious crimes like gang violence). My column urged the “callboys” to be careful and on the alert but it seems that some aren’t being too bright as last week another call boy was arrested for prostitution at a rather beautiful downtown hotel. Seems this young man is in his middle twenties and a “video star” who was also working for the infamous “David Forrest Agency”… if you’re going to play in this game, beware of the gambles.

Many of you have asked me questions about my last column where I wrote about my treatment and wonderful experience at the Institute for Aesthetic Medicine in La Jolla… no, this is not plastic surgery and yes it costs much less. Yes, in just one visit and about 45 minutes on the table I had instant and long lasting wrinkle correction and I’m thrilled with the outcome as my wrinkles went away with the instant treatment of Restylane (and a tiny bit of Botox). The cost is very reasonable and with Restylane you need only two treatments a year! (Restylane lasts much longer that collagen). Restylane is natural cosmetic filler… it’s fabulous. But don’t take my word for it, go in for your free consultation and discover the new “fountain of youth” treatment for yourself. I plan to have some other treatments that they offer so I won’t be so scary-looking to you all!

But once again, run, don’t walk to the Institute for Aesthetic Medicine (9339 Genesee Ave.) and get your free consultation and get rid of all those wrinkles and lines on your face for a fraction of what it would cost for plastic surgery. By the way, they also get rid of “unwanted hair” with no pain. The doctor and staff are top notch and super friendly and go out of their way to make you feel comfortable. They have many GLBT clients… phone (858) 678-0220 and ask them yourselves… just one treatment and you will look and feel fabulous.

As you know every year our Gay & Lesbian Times has a super-huge San Diego Pride issue with a “special pullout” (printed in a four-color process on book stock paper). The ads are already going fast as it’s a popular issue with extra wide southern California distribution, so call in today (619) 299-6397 and get your space covered… ask about the “early bird special rate” (by June 18).

Hey, get your tickets today for the super popular and hottest party this Sunday from 2:00 to 5:00 p.m. on that beautiful ship, “The Spirit of San Diego”… this wild event is brought to you by Club Montage and Bourbon Street and always attracts hundreds of hot bodies. Tickets are available at both clubs or by phone (619) 294-9590.

The departure of popular Chuck Zito will be a great loss to our city’s theatre scene and of course the Diversionary Theatre… Under Zito, the Diversionary Theatre has become a major center of outstanding plays and has reached new heights in popularity and respect in the world of arts. Chuck Zito is a gentleman and just really a nice guy… Bravo Chuck! and we wish you the very best and thank you.
